Board of Regents lays out changes

Tuition increases for ISU and UNI, not Iowa

The Board of Regents on Wednesday approved tuition increases and appropriation requests, established ISU Global Corporation and sold $30 million in bond awards for Buchanan Hall and other projects on campus. The Iowa Board of Regents approved a 3 percent tuition increase for Iowa State University and the University of Northern Iowa, but agreed to keep the University of Iowa’s tuition steady for the year. Both ISU and UNI student government presidents supported a tuition increase

Iowa State announced Wednesday that 36,001 students are enrolled at the University this fall – the largest enrollment in school history. This fall enrollment number breaks the record for the seventh straight year and makes 2015 the ninth consecutive year of growth at ISU, the university said. “Our enrollment is demand-driven,” said ISU President Steven Leath in a news release from the university Wednesday. Iowa State’s freshman class enrollment is 6,231, including 3,586 from Iowa.

During Wednesday’s Iowa Board of Regents meeting, ISU President Steven Leath announced the retirement of three members of the Iowa State’s administrative staff. Paul Tanaka, university counsel, Tom Hill, senior vice president for Student Affairs, and Pamela White, dean of the College of Human Sciences, are all retiring from their positions at Iowa State by the end of the 2015-16 school year. Pamela White had announced her retirement before Wednesday’s meeting, and is leaving after 40

StuGov Senate updates New body of law goes into affect By Michaela.Ramm @iowastatedaily.com

MAMF press release by Chris Lyng. “At a time when many DJs let the records play themselves, Grandmaster Flash marked up his vinyl with crayon, fluorescent pens and grease pencil to create an innovative sound,” the release said. Flash also began playing shows with rappers who acted as emcees vocalizing over Flash’s music. This eventually led to the creation of the group Grandmaster Flash and the Furious Five. The group became the first-ever hip-hop group to be inducted in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2007. Grandmaster Flash will perform at 9 p.m. Thursday at DG’s Tap House. The Iowa School of Burlesque’s VARIETEASE showcase will perform before Grandmaster Flash. Headliner Ex Hex is a trio of punk rocker ladies who are traveling from Washington D.C. to make an appearance at MAMF. Ex Hex’s first album, “Rips,” came out in October 2014. Although Ex Hex is a somewhat new band, it has appeared on KEXP Radio, at Pitchfork Music Festival and on tours across the U.K. and U.S. The three members of Ex Hex each have previous band experience, but a shared vision brought the members together. “We just want to make a record that you can put on a jukebox, press play, and then it makes you want to dance,” said Mary Timony, the frontwoman of Ex Hex, during a KEXP Radio interview. She said the band’s sound was unexpected. “I don’t know it just kind of happened that way,” Timony said. “I feel like you just have a lot of phases in life, and right now this band just wants to rock.”

The Student Government Senate unanimously updated policy regarding Robert’s Rules of Order, allowing the Senate to use the most up-to-date version at its Wednesday meeting. Robert’s Rules is the body of law that is adopted by an assembly or governing body in a parliamentary system. The Student Government bylaw stated that the Senate would use the 10th edition of Robert’s Rules. However, the 11th edition was published in September 2011. Sen. Cole Button said the bill would strike the byline that states the Senate would use the 10th edition of the book. Instead, the law would state that the Senate would use the most updated version of the rules. Button said this bill would not cost the Senate anything, because there would only need to be one copy of the book available. “It would just mean if we have [the] 11th edition, we’d go by that; if we have the 10th, we’d go by that and so on,” Button said. Vice Speaker of the Senate Michael Snook said he supported the bill. “I think it’s a great bill actually,” Snook said. “I like how we’ll never have to update [the law] again.” The Senate currently has access to the newest edition to Robert’s Rules and will use that as a guide during its assemblies. Student Government Senate also seated new members to the organization at the Wednesday event meeting, including three new members of the Senate. Meredith Cook, senior in political science, was unanimously named as a senator for the United Residents Off Campus seat after a unanimous vote from the senators. “Iowa State has always been a big part of my life,” Cook said. “I thought it was time to get involved and make the university a better place.” The College of Agriculture and Life Sciences (CALS) seat was also filled by Anthony Hansen, senior in biology. Hansen was voted into the seat, 30 to 0. Hansen said because of the diversity of his friends in the biology and animal science majors, he is a good

Meet the headliners of 5th annual MAMF By Charlie.Coffey @iowastatedaily.com

T

hursday marks the start of the fifth annual Maximum Ames Music Festival, also known as MAMF, a four-day festival centralized in a three-block radius of Downtown Ames. From The Depaysement to Annalibera and Charlie Parr, the MAMF lineup this year is promising to say the least, but the headliners are where the list really shines. The Sept. 10-13 festival features a variety of headliners including The Mountain Goats’ John Darnielle (solo), Grandmaster Flash, Ex Hex, Mikal Cronin and Jon Wayne and The Pain. The Mountain Goats is a folk rock group with 15 full-length albums under its belt. Darnielle, poet and lead singer of The Mountain Goats, has performed solo under the band’s name in the past. Darnielle lived in Ames while writing one of the band’s most famous albums, “All Hail West Texas.” The Mountain Goat’s most recent work is the album “Beat the Champ,” which was released in April 2015. The songs on “Beat the Champ” are inspired by aspects of professional wrestling, including titles such as “The Legend of Chavo Guerrero” and “The Ballad of Bull Ramos.” Chris Lyng, co-founder of MAMF and Maximum Ames, introduced the Mountain Goats in a press release last May. “The Mountain Goats is one of the best and most widely known artists to have ever lived in Ames and he was also the headliner of MAMF’s first year,” Lyng said. “His connection to the community combined with his phenomenal growth as an artist since MAMF 1 make him a local legend without equal.” Darnielle performs at 7 p.m. Saturday

with Kate Kennedy as an opener at the First United Methodist Church. Joseph Saddler, also known as Grandmaster Flash, is a legend in the hip-hop world, pioneering disk jockey techniques such as the backspin and punch phrasing. Saddler was born in the West Indies in 1957 and grew up in South Bronx, N.Y. The role of the DJ before the 1970s was to change records at a party after each album finished. Grandmaster Flash was one of the first to spin a record backward while playing it on a turntable, which results in a scratching noise that Flash learned to manipulate musically.His father collected records throughout his childhood, which inspired him to experiment with them and eventually led him to becoming Grandmaster Flash. Flash pioneered many other techniques, which are laid out in the May

CLUBFEST MAKES MOVE TO CENTRAL CAMPUS

Students visit tents along the Curtiss-Beardshear walk Wednesday, learning about the clubs offered at Iowa State.

Four elected to School Board By Rakiah.Bonjour @iowastatedaily.com New members Alisa Frandsen and Lewis Rosser, and returning members Lucas Deardorff and Rodney Briggs, were elected to the Ames School Board on Tuesday night. Four spots were open on the sevenmember board. Frandsen, who earned 1,803 votes, wants to do the best she can to serve students. “It is the board’s responsibility to serve these goals long-term,” Frandsen said. Understanding a wide variety of needs and challenges exist in the district and supporting the staff within it is one way Frandsen plans to accomplish her goals during her four-year term. “The next four years will be very exciting and I’m excited to get to work,” she said. Rosser earned 1,305 votes for his election to the Board. According to the Ames Tribune, Rosser

is “committed to smaller class sizes in our schools.” Rosser also told the Tribune that varying curriculum for students with various skill levels is important for the schools. “Ames Community Schools need to meet the diverse learning needs of all students in our schools,” Rosser said. Deardorff plans to build a new high school and pool facility during his next term. He plans on forming a committee to go in to the community and see if anything having to do with renovations would be supported. Apart from the restorations, Deardorff said other challenges he could face for this term are the community’s financial situation and declining enrollment. “There is nothing we can actively do [about enrollment declines],” Deardorff said. “The best thing we can do is look at the community and great educational opportunities we can create.” Deardorff has a “strong credit and financial ana-

lytical background,” which helps him guide others to decisions. There are two properties he’s looking at selling, and he wants to use his financial background and relationship within the Ames community to move forward. “We had a great Board that accomplished a lot,” he said. “We have some great new members coming in.” Deardorff earned 1,324 votes. Briggs earned 1,206 votes for his reelection. He said one of the biggest issues to focus on over the next four years is the aging Ames High School. This is something he would like to look firmly at in the next two years. “The biggest part would be finding what is in need within the building,” Briggs said. “The building was built in the 1960s and it just can’t handle modern technology. We will have to look into the costs for sure [for renovating the building], but there might be better opportunities in building a new school, it is just hard to say right now.”

Rhoads eulogizes Tyler Sash By Luke.Manderfeld @iowastatedaily.com ISU head coach Paul Rhoads called former Hawkeye football player Tyler Sash’s death “tragic” while meeting with the media Wednesday night. In a game against Iowa State in 2009, Sash had three interceptions in a 35-3 rout of the Cyclones. Rhoads was in the beginning of his first

season at the helm for the Cyclones. “It’s just tragic,” Rhoads said. “Just awful in life, let alone in athletics, and the sadness that goes along with losing someone so young and so vibrant and meant so much and impacted so many people as well as a program.” Sash was found dead in his Oskaloosa, Iowa, home on Tuesday, according to multiple media reports.

Sash was named to the All-Big 10 team in 2010 and finished his career with 13 interceptions, five shy of the school record. He went 3-1 against the Cyclones in his four seasons with Iowa. Following his college career, Sash was drafted in the sixth round of the 2011 NFL Draft by the New York Giants. An autopsy is expected to take place Wednesday, according to media reports.

Health center candidates to visit ISU By Alex.Hanson @iowastatedaily.com Students and staff interested in questioning one of the two finalists to lead the Thielan Health Center can do so Thursday and Friday.

The second finalist will be announed next week, and a visit to campus is planned.

the events will be donated to United Way of Story County, an organization that the university has long been supportive of. United Way’s “LIVE UNITED” campaign focuses on areas in human sciences, including child-care assistance, senior services, prevention education and treatment services. It invests in issues ranging from providing tutoring services to six out of the seven school districts in Story County to teaching

women basic financial literacy. According to its website, money raised by the group will impact 1 in 3 people in the county. “The United Way has come a long way in Ames and all over the country to try and help social service agencies,” Madden said. Madden has a personal admiration of the organization since he was once the chairman of the United Way board. “Iowa State has

been a major United Way supporter for decades,” Madden said, “The university is about half of the Ames community.” Employees and students involved in student-government units are encouraged to support the United Way. “In addition to that, most of the programs and services that we fund, with the exception of senior citizens, Iowa State students and faculty can take advantage of,” said Jean Kresse,

president and CEO of United Way of Story County. One prominent example is a childcare center located in a building that is owned by the university and very close to campus. “This is just one little piece of a way to try to help generate some United Way support,” Madden said of the event. The winner will be contacted Friday and is expected to pick up their pass by noon.

Panel discusses Court rulings By Ellen.Bombela @iowastatedaily.com

A panel hosted on Iowa State’s campus Wednesday discussed the Supreme Court’s recent rulings in gay marriage, Obamacare, free speech and more. The panel featured Mark Kende, Rita Bet tis, and Dirk Deam, and was moderated by Clark Wolf. The different topics discussed included lethal injections and same-sex marriage. Kende started the conversation by talking about the Affordable Care Act, otherwise known as Obamacare. Kende brought up the point that the main purpose of the law is to provide healthcare to mil-

lions of people currently without it, and that so far, it is working. “I really think that Obamacare has survived, whether for good or for bad, based on your own opinion,” said Kende, the Drake Constitutional Law Center director. Bettis continued the discussion by talking about lethal injection. Bettis stated that the Supreme Court approved that lethal injection, when the “three drug protocol” is followed and executed correctly, is legal. The first drug is used to render the recipient of the death penalty to not feel pain. The second drug administered is used to paralyze the person. The third drug is actually used to stop the heart and has been explained to be ex-

tremely painful. Dirk Deam wrapped up the discussion by talking about the Supreme Court’s recent decision to legalize same-sex marriage. The decision was made because, according to the four main principles that pertain to the law of marriage, same-sex marriage has to be recognized. “If same-sex marriage has the same objectives and is consistent with this, then we have to recognize same-sex marriage under the law,” Deam said referring to the Supreme Court’s decision. Mediator Clark Wolf, professor of philosophy and law and Iowa State, helped enrich the discussion by asking the panelists questions to further their

initial thoughts. “I read [the cases] carefully and I’ve been thinking about these issues for my whole professional life, so I just find there are some interesting things about these cases. For each case there are certain things I’d like to bring out. One of the things we need to discuss is the political background as well,” said Wolf, who is the creator of the now four-year old panel discussion. After the panel’s initial discussion was over, the floor was opened up for audience members to ask questions. The questions that were asked challenged the panelists to dive deeper into the different topics that were discussed throughout the evening.

Maryland governor and Democratic presidential candidate Martin O’Malley plans to make college debt-free while also reducing the increasing $1.3 trillion in student loan debt. The O’Malley campaign held a conference call on Wednesday with U.S Rep. Eric Swalwell, D-CA, and with one college democrat from Iowa State, University of Iowa and University of Northern Iowa. Congressman Swalwell outlined O’Malley’s plan for debt-free college during the call. Some highlights include to: •Allow students to refinance their loans. •Cap the monthly loan payment amounts for borrowers. •Link minimum payments to individual income rates. •Freeze all public tuition. •Increase Pell Grants and expanding work-study programs. •Restore state’s higher education funding. •Allow public service without the fear of defaulting. The Congressman and students called for more debates among the democratic nominees. Only six debates have been sanctioned by the Democratic Party, and O’Malley has been a proponent for even more debates. Each student spoke about why his or her support had gone to the Maryland governor. Evan Abramsky, junior in political science and founder of Cyclones for Martin O’Malley, talked about his demoralized spirit in the political process until he started hearing about O’Malley. “I really believe in this guy,” Abramsky said. “He really seems to care.”

Student action needed

Get involved in effort to improve health center

Compared to countries such as China, Saudi Arabia and France, the United States spends hundreds of thousands of dollars more on its military. Columnist Carstens argues that eliminating just 10 percent of that money would alleviate pressures in the United States.

Military splurges costing U.S. Minor spending reallocation would improve country’s future By Courtney.Carstens @iowastatedaily.com

T

he United States spends more than $577 billion annually on defense. To put that in perspective, 10 percent of that spending could provide free tuition, room and board for 1,800 students through scholarships and grants. The U.S. defense spending is important, but we are foolishly spending some of that money. The U.S. military is the most advanced and expensive military in the world, leading China, Saudi Arabia and France. While these countries have legitimate reasons for the amount of money each one spends, the U.S. doesn’t. The U.S. is not at war. Therefore, the country should not be spending American people’s tax money so irresponsibly. China is the second strongest nation in the world but is only spending $147 billion on its military. The amount of money China thrusts into its defense is derived from its thirst to become the most affluent and powerful country possible. This is evident in an article by John J. Mearsheimer titled ‘Can China Rise Peacefully?’. In contrast to the United States, Saudi Arabia is currently in a situation that is, let’s just say, less than peaceful. Saudi Arabia increased its military spending by 14.3 percent two years ago because of neighboring countries. Iraq and Yemen are nearby and

are both in upheaval. Saudi Arabia has to worry about the tension between those two countries and its knowingly poor and dangerous situation with Iraq. These perilous situations that surround Saudi Arabia directly correlate with its increase in military spending. France’s military disbursement is interesting because its military budget has decreased and yet it is still fifth in the world in military spending. France’s decrease in military spending was quite small because of the nation’s weak economic growth and the serious measures taken after the international economic crisis to improve its situation. Interest groups for military spending, such as the National Defense PAC, defend our outrageous military spending by saying we need to be prepared for every type of attack that could come our way. While I agree that we need to be prepared for attacks against our nation, we could take a meager 10 percent of that budget and put it toward other important facets of our government, such as education. This would still allow the U.S. to be fully prepared for an attack and protect its citizens. Even if we removed that much from our defense spending we would still be disbursing over $300 billion more than China, according to a chart on the country’s national defense created by Thomas C. Frohlich and Alexander Kent. We can afford to make this change without putting the citizens of this country in jeopardy. That excess money could be

used to pay off national debt, help secure the Social Security program for at least a few more decades or increase the amount of students in the country receiving an affordable education. We have more than $18 trillion in national debt, so making just a small dent would help. An opposition to giving other government programs the money that is now used for defense spending is if we spend our money on other programs, we may not be able to help our allies when they are in danger. We shouldn’t worry about other countries when half of their problems won’t directly affect us. We got involved in the Vietnam War to stop the spread of communism despite resistance from our own people. Communism could not have spread to our nation as fast as our government led us to believe. While I respect the bravery of people who fight for our country, I, like many, believe that getting involved with other countries’ wars is unnecessary. The American military budget is excessive. While defense against our enemies is necessary, does spending more than $577 billion, $400 billion more than China, really compensate for that? No, some of this excess money could go toward lowering national debt or aiding government programs like Social Security and education. At a time when we are not at war, why wouldn’t we focus our attention on other essential needs of society here at home rather than potential issues abroad?

Lack of action allows Dems to control By Khayree.Fitten @iowastatedaily.com The public’s attempts to change events in our nation’s capital are few and far between. While the influence of money in politics is undeniably widespread, this inconsistent engagement presents an arguably equal threat to a well-functioning government. One of the few tools we use to spur action in Washington, D. C. is the blame game. It made Sen. Ted Cruz, RTexas, the most obvious target of scorn during the government shutdown of 2013 as public pressure against his Obamacare stunt eventually became so great that he earned rebuke from his own Republican colleagues. People recognized the damage he was doing to the economy and lives of average citizens, albeit after the fact. The script has been flipped as Congress returns to work this week with another shutdown looming. This time, Senate Democrats could force the government to come to a halt after their “filibuster summer”

was met by deafening silence from the American people. The summer’s events can be traced back to President Obama signing the Budget Control Act of 2011. Obama claimed it made a serious down payment on necessary deficit reductions. Back then, Republicans and Democrats were united in recognizing the important nature of growing debts and deficits, but the bipartisan desire to continue those policies is absent. With the country approaching full employment and deficits near historical averages, many Democrats believe that the 2011 measures are no longer essential. The method used to achieve deficit reduction, commonly known as the sequester, is reckless. They accurately claim that some Republican funding proposals fail to sufficiently invest in urgent priorities like infrastructure, research, education and social services. But the Democratic position has been damaged by an ill-advised about-face on deficit reduction. Diverging from his 2011 views, Obama never entertained the prospect of a balanced budget with his

February spending proposals. The president would allow the all-important indicator of publicly held federal debts as a percentage of GDP to continue its rise. The economic struggles of Greece and Japan demonstrate why this is a bad idea. In contrast, Republicans moved toward funding the federal government with deficit reduction still in mind. Congress passed its first budget in six years in May, a budget consistent with the same law signed by President Obama in 2011. The GOP-led Congress spent the summer passing legislation to fund the government and move toward a balanced budget. Anyone who’s watched “I’m Just a Bill” from Schoolhouse Rock realizes that this is exactly how Congress is supposed to work. Furthermore, Republicans deserve praise for a feat that hasn’t been accomplished since 2009. Instead, Senate Democrats spent the entire summer obstructing the process with the same tactics they denounced while in power. “When [Republicans] en-

counter an issue that they’re afraid to debate in full public view they want to thwart debate all together,” said former Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid. The bills Democrats blocked would have earned Obama’s veto and sent Republicans back to the drawing board to negotiate something worthy of his signature, the same process that worked for welfare reform in 1996. Otherwise, Republicans would have bore responsibility for the breakdown in procedure. Media outlets will be wrong when they inevitably blame Republicans for the debacle. Months removed from historic election victories, the GOP should not have acted any differently absent bystander intervention from the American public. The truth is that a lack of preemptive public action allowed Democrats to deny the country an open, public debate on deficit reduction. The results won’t be the fault of the big-money boogeymen Koch Brothers or George Soros. We will instead be haunted by our sins of omission.

For years, Thielen Health Center has been under scrutiny from students due to lack of efficiency and the quality of care provided. These concerns came to light this summer when Keeling and Associates published a biting review of the center, confirming the multitude of complaints brought forth by students. It isn’t uncommon to hear talk of this nature across campus because the reputation of the health center precedes itself. Horror stories of anything from missed cases of appendicitis to the great number of hoops one must jump through just to get in to see a physician are exchanged quite frequently between students. This usually doesn’t do anything but act as a topic of conversation; nothing is done to alleviate the complaints. Circumstances are different this time because university officials are finally listening and taking action. Shelly O’Connell, who directed the student health center at the University of Northern Iowa since 2008 and is one of two candidates in contention to lead the Thielen Health Center, will be in the Gallery of the Memorial Union at 4:10 p.m. Thursday to answer questions and meet with students. O’Connell will also be at the helm of an open forum in the Gold Room of the Memorial Union at 9 a.m. Friday. The forum will feature a presentation that will highlight the importance of student health as a factor of education. Another question-and-answer session will follow. All the issues that have surfaced from the health center in recent years stem from the top of the heap, which is why the search for a new lead is so vital. According to Keeling & Associates, Thielen “suffers from a serious, chronic and coercive lack of leadership.” Although this review was conducted by an outside source, it perfectly reflected the concerns and feelings of students. Students struck a chord with the university by expressing concerns about how the health center worked. But we can’t stop now; ceasing to show interest in the evolving environment at the health center would undo all the positive steps that have been taken. It is for this reason that students must play an active role in events such as the public forum or question-andanswer sessions that are taking place with potential lead candidates. Students, the sole customers of the health center, have spent a lot of time saying things need to change. Nothing will change if we don’t participate.

Cyclones must hold the line against Hawkeyes By Max.Dible @iowastatedaily.com Daniel Burton stood on the sidelines and watched as the Cyclones christened a revamped Jack Trice Stadium with a satisfying bit of retribution — a 31-7 manhandling of Northern Iowa. Iowa State didn’t need Burton, its starting right guard, to hold the line against UNI’s athletic front seven. But Saturday’s Cy-Hawk matchup against Iowa’s defensive front will likely be a different story. “This is probably the hardest-nosed, toughest defensive line we’ll play all year,” said senior right tackle Brock Dagel. The challenge Iowa’s defense presents will require a more stalwart effort than what Iowa State’s offensive line put forth against UNI last weekend, when it showed itself to be one of the few shaky spots in an otherwise dominant ISU

victory. “I thought that [the offensive line’s] performance was just average,” said ISU offensive coordinator Mark Mangino. “I think we’re capable of better. I didn’t like the idea that we didn’t finish some blocks that we should have. … We had a couple of breakdowns in protection with the backs and the O-line that we have to get fixed.” A disconnect exists between the offensive line’s opening performance and what Rhoads said of the position group at the end of fall camp — that it was not only the most improved area on the team throughout the preseason, but that its individual components were grading out higher than they ever had. So the present concern as the battle for in-state bragging rights approaches isn’t depth of talent. It’s simply depth. Heading into the season, eight players were ex-

pected to make up the line’s primary rotation. But backup center Patrick Scoggins went down for the season after rupturing a tendon in his leg four practices into camp. Then, in the days leading up to the seasonopener, Burton tweaked a knee and was sidelined. All of the sudden, before even one game had been played, the ranks of the regular rotation had shrunk by 25 percent — a difficult loss to absorb. Despite Mangino’s reluctance to confirm Burton would be in the lineup against Iowa, Rhoads provided concrete optimism Tuesday that the unit is likely to receive an important reinforcement. “[Burton] practiced today, so I think we’re good to go,” Rhoads said. “It’ll be fun to have three guards and three tackles for sure, and be able to continue a rotation [with the guards] like we did with the tackles [last] Saturday.”

No changes for ISU volleyball post injury By Kevin.Horner @iowastatedaily.com A concussion to junior Suzanne Horner in practice Sept. 2 required an immediate change of plans for the ISU volleyball team as it prepared for the upcoming Fairfield Inn and Suites Cavalier Classic. As the injury occurred just two days before Iowa State’s match against Appalachian State on Sept. 4, ISU coach Christy Johnson-Lynch had to make a quick decision as to what formation would be utilized for the upcoming weekend, the 6-2 or the 5-1. During the Cyclone Invitational, Iowa State played in the 6-2 almost exclusively, but that was when both Horner and sophomore setter Monique Harris were healthy. As the system calls for two setters, the Cyclones were able to showcase the talents of both players. But with Horner’s concussion, Johnson-Lynch was left with two options entering the weekend tournament in Charlottesville, Va. One option was to revisit the 5-1 system — a formation that generated less success last seaso than the 6-2. In that situation, Harris would assume the entire setting load — setting from both the front and back rows.

Option two was to hold fast to the 6-2 formation and activate freshman setter Remi Bowman to collaborate with Harris in Virginia. Johnson-Lynch decided on option two. Now, some may assume that with three active setters for the 2015 season the Cyclones would be committed to the 6-2 formation. But JohnsonLynch has yet to set her formations in stone. “I still am interest-

ed in the 5-1, honestly,” Johnson-Lynch said. “We’ll still toy with it. We’ll keep exploring it to see which system we’ll be better in.” The Cyclones were in a similar dilemma in 2014. Last season it was the 5-1 that was used early on with the 6-2 being mixed in every so often in practice. And although the 5-1 characterized the majority of the first half of the season, it was the 6-2 that eventu-

ally carried Iowa State into the NCAA Tournament. Now, even with the consistent employment of the 6-2, the 5-1 continues to linger around practice. “There definitely is [potential for the 5-1 to be used], especially since [Horner] is hurt,” said senior Caitlin Nolan. “[Bowman] came in and did a really good job this weekend, but sometimes you just need to switch it up a little bit.” Despite the potential for the formation switch, the Cyclones continue to employ the 6-2. ISU players said they feel the 6-2 better fits the mold of the team as a whole. As the 6-2 only permits setters to set from the back row, the front row is always filled with three attackers, allowing the team to take full advantage of its barrage of attacking talent. “There’s always three hitters up, so that [opens] that other spot [in the front row] where the setter would be up [in the 5-1],” said redshirt junior Morgan Kuhrt. “We have a lot of offensive weapons, so I think it’s a good opportunity for a lot of people to get into the front row.” The 2015 Cyclones, as can be seen by the opening two tournaments, seem to be leaning toward the 6-2 formation for the future. However, no formation is ever set in stone.

The experience Burton brings will be of considerable value to an ISU offensive line that surrendered seven tackles for loss — including four sacks — to UNI and also struggled to run the ball effectively. Iowa State averaged 124.1 yards per game on the ground last season, good enough for the 108thranked rushing attack in the country, according to ESPN. com. Per the same list, the Cyclones’ 3.7 yards-percarry average slotted them at 98th in the nation. Iowa State finished the day against UNI with only 77 ground yards on 32 attempts, producing an average of 2.4 yards per carry. Those are significant decreases from what were already concerning numbers in 2014. And starting with Iowa, the defensive competition is only going to improve as the season wears on. It will be up to the offensive line to create wider

creases against a Hawkeye defense that afforded Illinois State only 35 total rushing yards on 28 attempts. “I’d like to open up bigger holes and sustain blocks,” Rhoads said. “And going against Drew Ott and the rest of [Iowa’s] formidable defensive line ... we’re going to need to protect our quarterback.” A smart, hard-nosed defense that doesn’t beat itself, as Mangino characterized Iowa, also has a talented secondary that contributed heavily to the Hawkeyes’ five sacks and 10 tackles for loss against the Redbirds last weekend. The Cyclones must run the ball more effectively to create

breathing room for Richardson and his talented wide receivers to flourish. But Dagel isn’t concerned. Recent history, he says, is on the Cyclones’ side. “Traditionally, at least since I’ve been here, the biggest jump for the O-line has been from the first to second game,” Dagel said. “We traditionally have played outstanding against Iowa.” The performance jump from the first game to the second should be even more pronounced this year with the addition of Burton. If the Cyclones hope to claim their fourth victory against Iowa in five years, it’s going to have to be.

Improved offense relieves pressure from Koree Willer By Chris.Wolff @iowastatedaily.com Goals were not always easy to come by for the ISU soccer team last season, but when the Cyclones did score, it frequently came off the foot of Koree Willer. Willer’s 10 goals were by far the most on the team. In fact, she scored almost 50 percent of the team’s 21 total goals. It quickly became a problem, however. Opponents began to zero in on Willer, suffocating her offensive attacks. If Willer was unable to break free, the game usually ended in a loss for the Cyclones. ISU coach Tony Minatta is thrilled that has not been the case early in the 2015 season. “It’s great to have other players stepping up, getting that confidence and [producing] for us,” Minatta said. Willer only has one of the team’s 10 total goals through six games this season, proving the Cyclones have more than one capable offensive weapon. Even though Willer’s goal production is down, Minatta said Willer’s presence alone is a big reason for the more balanced scoring attack. “[With] Koree scoring 10 goals last year, she’s getting a lot of attention,” Minatta said. “People know who she is and when she

steps on the field, she’s the focus of a lot of defenses.” Opposing defenses have focused so much on Willer that other Cyclones have been able to take advantage. Haley Albert currently leads the team with three goals, Klasey Medelberg and Lauren Roeling each have two, and three other Cyclones have a single goal to their name. The result has been a 4-2 start and an offense that is clicking. “It’s been a huge thing for us knowing that our midfielders can score, our freshmen can come in and play forward, and Koree is not going to be the only thing we have, which is nice,” said junior defender Kourtney Camy. Though Willer’s individual production has gone down, she said she is happy to see a more balanced offense. Impact players have stepped up, and she has

less pressure to score because she knows her teammates are reliable threats. “I want to impact the game however I can,” Willer said. “I need to take advantage of what I am given.” Willer doesn’t care if that means scoring goals, assisting or being a decoy so other players get openings. Her goal-scoring production may be down for now, but Minatta sees that changing soon. “I think people are going to start taking notice now,” Minatta said of the Cyclones’ balanced attack. That bodes well both for Willer and the entire team. “Koree will start scoring,” Minatta said. “It’s going to happen. It’s happened each year that she’s been here, and the more that other people are scoring, the less [opponents] will be able to just focus on her.”

The Burrito Sampler was an event that gave the public a chance to see some of the talent from MAMF before the festival. The sampler allowed anyone who took a photo with a styrofoam burrito and posted it to social media during the sampler to be entered to win MAMF tickets. “It’s going to be a great experience sharing all the vibes at the show,” Vestal said while talking about Ex Hex.

Book celebrates ISU’s beauty By Dalton.Gackle @iowastatedaily.com The Student Alumni Association is releasing a new 128-page hard-bound book commemorating the university this week. The book, “Seasons of Iowa State University,” features the colorful photography of Jim Heemstra. It begins with the fall semester and finishes in the summer. “We needed a way to organize the book, and the one we kept coming back to was seasons,” said Carole Gieseke, project manager. “It goes through an academic year, fall to summer, because that’s the experience you have as a student.” Jim Heemstra has been the Iowa State University photographer for 25 years. He works on the calendar and photos of the week for the university year-round. “We want to celebrate the beauty of Iowa State,”

Heemstra said. “The calendar has been very popular [and] this book is sort of a natural extension.” “Seasons of Iowa State University” is the second Iowa State coffee table book from the alumni association. “We had another book called “Reflections of Iowa State,” and it was very well received. People have been asking for a new one for some time now,” Gieseke said. Iowa State has a very photogenic campus, which explains some of the popularity of the calendar and the previous book. “Not a lot of other campuses can even put out a full 12-month calendar,” Heemstra said. “It’s a pretty campus. Not many other colleges can hold up.” Iowa State has plenty of land to showcase compared to other schools in urban settings. “Other campuses have

small areas that are beautiful, but not many can compare to the whole of Iowa State,” Heemstra said. The campus is beautiful all year, but the beginnings of each semester stand out. “Fall and spring are the most beautiful times of year. That’s when all the colors come out and show off the campus,” Heemstra said. But some of the best photos were taken during the winter, the season with the least amount of color. “My favorite photo at the university is the one that’s on the cover,” Heemstra said. “It was a snowy day and I was sitting on the bank of Lake LaVerne and the swans were just swimming towards me. It was a magic moment.” The book also features Iowa State’s history, art, architecture, landscape, environment and traditions. Gieseke wrote the excerpts

in the book. “We wanted to bring something to the table that alumni could look back on and reminisce and that current students could feel a part of,” Gieseke said. The alumni association is hosting a release party and book signing from 4 to 7 p.m. Thursday at the ISU Alumni Center on the Third Floor to showcase the book and its photographer. Books are available to ISUAA members for $25 during the event. Nonmembers may purchase the book for $30. Books are additionally available online at the ISU Alumni Association’s website. The event is free and open to the public. Hors d’oeuvres and a cash bar will be provided. Book designer Scott Thornton was unavailable for comment. For more information, visit the ISU Alumni Center’s web page for the event.

they could agree to small tuition increases because of the dual issues of enrollment growth and stagnant funding from the state. A tuition increase would mean less strain on the institutions. During the last academic year, Iowa State’s Student Government passed an initiative to recommend small, periodic tuition increases to the Board of Regents so students’ tuition will increase in small increments and not large sums of

Tanaka, the University Counsel, has been with Iowa State for almost 20 years. “During that time he’s provided exceptional legal counsel,” Leath said. “He’s lead us through some very challenging situations with integrity and wisdom.” Tanaka, who plans to retire in the spring, has made a lasting footprint at Iowa State and other universities, due in part to how

he’s helped shaped the university’s legal practices. “Because of Paul’s expertise, many institutions around the country have looked at Iowa State to copy our best practices,” Leath said. The earliest of the departures will come from Hill, who plans to leave the university in December. “Tom has been a true champion for the Iowa State brand,” Leath said. “He’s probably the most recog-

nizable face, maybe other than mine, on campus because he’s with students everywhere. He’s their mentor, advisor, advocate, friend, cheerleader; he’s really what embodies the Iowa State brand.” Leath was not the only one to herald Hill’s commitment to the students of Iowa State. “Dr. Hill is our first point of contact for the administration,” said Dan

money at once. “It makes sense that ISU and UNI would advocate for an increase as their populations are growing,” Mills said. “The University of Iowa does not have those needs. I’d ask that you not increase tuition for the University of Iowa.” The Board of Regents voted 6-3 to exclude the University of Iowa from the tuition increase and then voted 7-2 to approve the increase in tuition for UNI and Iowa State by 3 percent

in the spring. After Board of Regents President Bruce Rastetter pushed for an additional $4.3 million to be appropriated for the University of Iowa instead of an increase, the board unanimously voted to approve the amendment to the appropriations request, and eventually approved all appropriations, including Iowa State and UNI. Iowa State received an additional $8.19 million, a 4.2 percent increase in

funding. UNI received an additional $7.65 million, a 7.7 percent increase. The University of Iowa received an additional $4.3 million. The board also unanimously approved the sale of $30 million in bonds for Buchanan Hall and other campus projects at Iowa State, which will be repaid over 20 years. Debt service payments for the bonds will reach about $2 million for the $30 million repayment. Makayla Tendall contributed to this article.

Breitbarth, president of the Student Government, adding that Hill always did a fantastic job when he presented at Destination Iowa State. Hill was an integral part of many key initiatives that affected students recently, too. Among setting up the Student Loan Education Office in 2014, dealing with the issues surrounding the Theilen Student Health Center this year and setting up a funding program for

student groups, Hill has had a hand in it all, Breitbarth said. “This is a bittersweet announcement for me. They have been tremendous leaders and colleagues,” Leath said in regard to all three retirees. Breitbarth, who is already looking ahead, said he would appreciate hearing from students in regard to what qualities they’d like to see in the next senior vice president of Student Affairs.
